How to carry a Brompton on a Brompton

Have you always wondered if a Brompton could carry a Brompton? I have carried a new Vitamix blender and small camp stove in the past (photos to follow) but I thought it would be great if I can figure out how to carry a Brompton using an empty T-bag.

Feels like diving into the abyss


On a clear day, I can usually see Torrey Pines state beach on this winding road. Half way down this hill, I was surprised by this spectacle. It felt really spooky but I have been down this hill many times on my way home.

First Post

Expressing gratitude for the multimodal commute

Living and working near the coastal towns of San Diego has these benefits. The towns are very alluring and scenic. Imagine a commute this beautiful. I choose this over the freeway.
The beach in Del Mar,CA is absolutely beautiful.
My trusty 2008 arctic blue Brompton M6L enables me to commute in many ways to make the work week more interesting. An example would be
  • car + bike
  • bike + train + bike
  • car + train + bike
The Brompton has become the go-to bike because of the integrated and quick-release commuter cargo bag. It is perfect for laptops, small tool set, lunch, and a light jacket. Moreover, I can take it inside the building and place it under the desk or small corner. Most of the time I use the rain cover to conceal it. These bikes attract too much attention and curiosity.
